ObjectivesOverall objective: Upon completion of this module, vessel operators of all levels and
backgrounds should be able to navigate in the Canadian Marine Navigation System areas that are marked by lateral buoys and day marks.
Specific Objectives:1. At the end of this session, you should be able to explain the
difference between the nautical terms port and starboard, recognize the terms port and starboard in their marine application and apply these terms in relation to direction.
2. At the end of this session, you should be able to recognize lateral buoys and day marks and should be able to explain the meaning and intent of each.
3. At the end of this session, you should be able to apply the intent of the lateral buoys and day marks in a marine navigation environment.

Level 1/Section 2 - Objective
Objective:At the end of this session, you should be able to
recognize lateral buoys and day marks and should be able to explain the meaning and intent of each.
Level 1/Section 2 -- Introduction to buoys
Buoys are aids to navigation which are used internationally.
Level 1/Section 2 -– Aids to Navigation
Aids to navigation:-- are devices or systems external to
pleasure craft.-- help a boat operator determine
both position and course.-- can warn of dangers or
obstructions. Back to section 2
Level 1/Section 2 – Lateral Buoys
There are two types of lateral buoys:
Port buoys and Starboard buoys.
Click on each of the highlighted words for more information on each.
Play audio lesson
Level 1/Section 2 – Port hand buoys
Port hand buoys are:--green --can be shaped as cans, spars or
pillars--if they do not have a green light
they will be flat on top

Level 1/Section 2 – Starboard hand buoys
Starboard hand buoys are:-- red-- can be shaped as cones, spars, or
pillars-- will have a red light or be conical on
top.

Level 1/Section 1 – Day Marks
There are also two types of day marks or day beacons:
Port day beacons and starboard day beacons.
Click on the highlighted words for more information.
Play audio lesson
Level 1/Section 2 – Port day marks
A port day beacon -- marks the port side of a channel or
danger during the daylight hours-- must be kept to the left of a pleasure
craft when heading up stream-- is square with a black or green coloured
square centred on a white background-- may display an odd number
See sample

Level 1/Section 2 – Starboard hand beacon
A starboard hand beacon:-- marks the starboard side of a
channel or danger during the daylight hours
-- must be kept on the right side-- is a red triangle with white
background-- may display an even number

Congratulations! You have come to the end of the material in level 1.
You should now be aware of how to recognize lateral buoys and day beacons and know their function.
It is recommended that you now work through level 2 to cement your knowledge. Or you may proceed directly to the Assessment portion of the module to test yourself and use the buoys in a practical exercise.
Level 2 Assessment
Interactive Assessment Exercise
You now have the opportunity to test your knowledge of lateral buoys in this simulation! Your goal is to safely navigate the boat through the entrance to the harbour.
